Benton to weigh police cameras and Congo Road roundabout

Benton is scheduled to consider two projects at its Oct. 26 meeting: a police camera system priced at and a roundabout on Congo Road.

The meeting will give city officials an opportunity to review both proposals. The police camera system falls within the city’s public-safety responsibilities. The Congo Road project concerns a roadway intersection and traffic design.

The agenda information does not state whether either item is set for a final vote, nor does it identify a funding source, project schedule or proposed design for the roundabout. It also does not describe the camera system’s equipment, coverage area or operating rules.

Residents who want to follow the items should check Benton’s meeting materials and any action taken on Oct. 26.
